Monday Night Betting

The Tennessee Titans will be looking to keep their perfect record intact on Monday when they play host to the rival Indianapolis Colts and those eating cheesesteaks at Tony Luke's are planning a Phillies World Series Parade as the Rays take on the Phillies at Citizens Bank Park. Here's your Daily Sports Roundup. To laugh all the way to the bank, no need to put in your Tracy Smith CD, just check out all the betting picks for tonight.

The Gridiron Spotlight

The Titans are the last unbeaten team in the NFL, and they're coming off a 34-10 thrashing of the Chiefs in Week 7. Tennessee has also paid off nicely for bettors so far this season, as they're now 6-0 against-the-spread. The Colts are three games back of the Titans in the AFC South, as they're 3-3 (and 2-4 ATS) in 2008. Indianapolis will be looking to forget last week's losing result - they were pounded 34-14 by the Packers.

The Colts and Titans split their season series last year, with each team winning on the road. Indianapolis started things off with a 22-20 victory in their first meeting; Tennessee then won 16-10 in the second matchup. Both of those contests were UNDER results, and the combined scores of Colts/Titans games have been UNDER plays six straight times. As well, the Titans have picked up the ATS win in each of the last four meetings.

The Titans have been pegged as 4-point home favorites in this contest, while the total for the game is at 40.5 points. The teams are both 3-3 on the O/U through six games.

Other Notable Events

Game 5 of the World Series is set for Monday night in Philadelphia, with first pitch at 8:30pm ET. The Phillies will be looking for another big outing from ace Cole Hamels in this contest. The lefthander is now 4-0 in the postseason, and he picked up a win over the Rays in Game 1 by surrendering just two earned runs over seven innings pitched.

The Rays will counter with Scott Kazmir, who is 1-1 with two no-decisions so far in the playoffs. Kazmir was tagged with the loss in Game 1 against the Phillies, allowing three earned runs on six hits over six innings of work; that bumped his playoff ERA up to 4.15.

The Rest of the Schedule

After taking Sunday off the National Hockey League returns on Monday with six games, including a Big Apple battle between the Rangers and the Islanders. Making up the rest of the schedule: Ottawa at Buffalo, Anaheim at Columbus, Chicago at Minnesota, Boston at Edmonton, and also Detroit at Los Angeles in the lone west-coast matchup.
